A few years back my husband sent money over and had his mom buy land. After some discussions we decided it was best if we have the title of the land changed from his mom's name to his name. He went to lawyer the other day who told him it would cost 25,000 pesos to do this. Now that to me is outrageous. He thought so to and is going to go to the company from whom he bought the land and find out whats going on, but i thought i'd ask if anyone here has ever transferred a name on a title and if so does it really cost that much???

taxes?

could it be some form of a tax one has to pay to change the name from one family member to another? Do you pay taxes on land you purchase in DR? My husband says yes but hasn't paid it yet, they must not be that strict on deadlines.
